Your brain work exactly the same as everyone else, you need around 8 hours of sleep, at night time, for a lot of reasons, mainly hormonals ones. The hours you wake-up is very important, because your body is more affected by the hour you wake-up, than the hour you go to sleep. That's an efficient technique to train your habits, to make them in accordance with what your body and mind need. You also need a sufficient physical activity during the day.
The environment you sleep on is important too, you need the darkest place possible to sleep, no light. And it's better to sleep on your side than on your back, because during sleep your brain wash itself, evacuating all the trashs in it and it's designed to function optimaly in a side position.
And since I'm not retired...
I just started last night, actually!
The 16-8 sleep cycle became a necessity during industrialisation and is considered the norm in Western society now. We have become slaves to machines!
It’s less about getting sleep and more about getting quality sleep.
The issue with non-24 is that your circadian rhythm doesn’t understand cues for sleeping and waking such as exposure to the sun or other bright lights.
So while you might fall asleep at a certain time due to chronotherapy (maintaining a consistent schedule,) it won’t be restful sleep: you could sleep 8-12 hours and it’ll feel like you got 4-6. Unless you somehow figure out when your body wants to go to sleep and manage to match your sleep cycle to that.
There’s no cure, as once the brain has acquired the faulty input from a nerve bead encoded with it the process is copied into the brain itself and becomes permanent.
We don’t even have diagnostic tools which can meaningfully single the condition out, aside from searching for transplant scars on the optic nerve or brain damage which would result in blindness. Both of which tend to wind up in your medical history when they happen.
As a result if you have any concurrent disorders, such as sleep apnea, it’s common for the condition to be blamed on them.
Most treatments revolve around attempting to manage not sleeping, and don’t really work. Because there is no replacement for a good night or day’s rest. As such it’s considered a crippling disability as working a job becomes functionally impossible.
This is distinctly different from DSPS or the phase advance version of it where one simply has an extreme preference for day or night sleeping. These are usually manageable, if still somewhat awful, because the sleep target doesn’t move around.
There are many cases of treatments for DSPS, such as bright light therapy, triggering an underlying non-24 syndrome. Since if you really get into a schedule and are on it for a really long time you lose the ability to meaningfully determine your own degradation of performance and mental well-being.
But on exposure to the light your circadian rhythm is triggered, and suddenly it wants restful sleep again.
Hang on, my phone is dying, gotta go plug it in.
Life could be a dream!
Joke all you want, here's some random site that somewhat supports my claims:

OT is still working out if life is a simulation or a dream within a dream. Please give us more time.
We? Do you have a mouse in your pocket?
Maybe you. Not me.
